so if I want to pay in US Dollars CASH I get screwed each time? because the vendor has to exchange it?


You get screwed cause they can and do take advantage of tourists. Had a big bill on Orient yesterday, exchange rate was 1.20. I know the owner so I called him on it and he said most don't pay attention. Charged it through in Euros so I will get the 1.05.
